Puzzle Guide Part 4

The ultimate killer puzzle, mostly because in the original version, it'd kill you if you solve it incorrectly. A few things of note for this puzzle. There is a selection limit: once you've hit the buttons 20 times, it will end the puzzle although if you hit the correct sequence on the last try, you will be still have succeeded.

A second thing of note is that if you hit the wrong grid, the puzzle will reset itself and you will need to restart from the first grid again. Sadistic, I know. Alright then, let's get down to the meat of the puzzle and tackle this thing once and for all.

Earlier in the chapter, Larry will give you the answer to the puzzle via a vision, telling you that the key is the first note is B flat and then C, D flat, E flat, F, G flat and A flat. But later when you run into the puzzle, there are no mention of the word flats, only sharps. So how should things be done?

During the opening sequence, it is mentioned that one of the key is tingling, which is the A sharp key. Hit that one and you will be told that it's the correct one and in the beta, you will get a bunch of bad references and horrible puns to help you along the way.

For those without that access, note that B flat = A sharp. So if that pattern stands, that would mean that D flat = C sharp, E flat = D sharp, G flat = F sharp and A flat = G sharp. So that would mean that the sequence to press is A sharp, C, C sharp, D sharp, F, F sharp and G sharp. Try that out and see for yourself.

Oh in case, you're wondering, that's the B flat minor scale.

  1. Thanks for the guide, but there is a huge problem with this puzzle, similar to the tower puzzle. After I've pressed the first key, I realize I should have made notes as to which color corresponds to which note. That information should be available without having to restart and take notes if I want to get it right.

    1. Huh? I've tested it plenty of times before the game came out and the solution works.

      What may have happened is that you hit the wrong key and the puzzle resetted itself back to its original state.

    1. Please elaborate further on what problem you have with the puzzle.

      A vague comment about the pope's toilet is unable to help me fix the issue and would only serve to show people that you are unable to provide helpful insight and information to help others in anyway possible.
